Cross-reference of related applications
[0001] This application claims the benefits of Chinese Patent Application No. 202211183875.0, filed on 27 September 2022, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. [Technical Field]
[0002] This invention relates to the field of rubber damping materials, and more specifically to halogenated grafting agents and halogenated branched butyl rubber, as well as methods for producing and using them. [Background technology]
[0003] Rubber damping materials, due to the unique viscoelastic properties of polymers, have a clear damping effect that reduces vibration and noise, improving the working environment for both humans and machines. They are widely used in many fields, including high-speed rail, aerospace, naval vessels and ships, mechanical engineering, automobiles, and electronics. In particular, in data storage systems for IT equipment such as various servers, computers, workstations, and switches, fan rotation generates cabinet vibration and noise, which significantly affects the lifespan of hard drives, leading to a very high demand for efficient damping and vibration control products. Furthermore, the operating environments of electronic equipment are facing increasingly complex conditions, such as lower and higher temperatures, resulting in very high demands for rubber damping materials.
[0004] Diene rubbers are widely used in various fields of daily production and life, and their main industrial products include butadiene rubber, isoprene rubber, butyl rubber, and halogenated butyl rubber. Brominated butyl rubber (BIIR) is an important type of halogenated butyl rubber, possessing excellent damping performance and being one of the most widely used basic damping rubbers. However, conventional brominated butyl rubber has drawbacks such as insufficient damping value, insufficient damping performance stability, insufficient effective damping temperature range, and inferior mechanical properties, making it unable to meet the damping performance requirements of materials used in large and precision equipment. This is a bottleneck in expanding the applications of brominated butyl rubber materials.
[0005] CN103113682A discloses a high-performance damping rubber and a method for manufacturing the same. This high-performance damping rubber is obtained by blending and polymerizing a first precursor and a second precursor, wherein the first precursor has molecular chains having cationic groups, and the second precursor has molecular chains having anionic groups, the molar ratio of cationic groups to anionic groups in the rubber is 1:1, the breaking strength is 5 to 20 MPa, the breaking elongation is 200% to 300%, the repair efficiency is high at 90%, and the repair temperature is wide, ranging from 20 to 100°C, resulting in a high-performance damping rubber with high repair efficiency.
[0006] CN103113682A discloses a highly damping material with a wide temperature range for electronic products and a method for manufacturing the same. By forming a supramolecular network structure through the interaction between non-polar butyl rubber, brominated p-tert-octylphenol formaldehyde resin, and polar small molecule hindered phenol A060, the temperature range reaches -60 to 100°C.
[0007] Liao Mingyi et al. (Journal of Dalian Maritime University, 2008, 34(2):83-86) disclosed a stepwise method for improving the damping performance of butyl rubber (IIR). Using IIR as the polymer network and poly(styrene-methyl methacrylate) [P(St-MMA)] as the polymer network II, they produced a butyl rubber / poly(styrene-methyl methacrylate) interpenetrating polymer network [IIR / P(St-MMA)] by graft polymerization, thereby producing a butyl rubber material with a wide temperature range and high damping performance.
[0008] Conventional technologies, such as blending, copolymerization, and interpenetrating network polymer methods, can broaden the effective damping temperature range of rubber and improve its damping performance to some extent. However, these methods still have certain limitations and can lead to a decrease in the mechanical properties of the modified material. [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]
[0009] The object of the present invention is to provide a halogenated grafting agent and halogenated branched butyl rubber that can be used in the production of halogenated branched butyl rubber to obtain halogenated branched butyl rubber with a high maximum damping rate, as well as a method for producing and using these, in order to solve the problems of the prior art in which rubber materials do not have high damping characteristics and mechanical properties. The method of the present invention solves the problem of isomerization rearrangement of the halogenated structure, which causes low damping in butyl rubber, and not only avoids damage to the mechanical properties and permeability of butyl rubber by damping brominated grafting agents, but also improves the damping performance and tensile strength of butyl rubber. [Means for solving the problem]
[0010] To achieve the above objective, a first aspect of the present invention provides a halogenation grafting agent comprising structural unit A, an arbitrary structural unit B, structural unit C, and structural unit D, wherein structural unit A has the structure shown by formula (1), structural unit C has the structure shown by formula (2), structural unit B is connected to structural unit A and structural unit C respectively, and structural unit D is a terminal capping structural unit, wherein structural unit B and structural unit D each independently provide a halogenation grafting agent derived from a conjugated diene.

The present invention provides a method for producing a halogenated grafting agent, comprising step S2, which involves carrying out a second capping reaction between the polymerization product obtained in step S1 or the third product obtained in step (2) and the first conjugated diene to obtain the halogenated grafting agent. [ka] (Here, R1 and R2 are each independently hydrogen or a linear or branched alkyl group of C1-C5, R3 is a linear or branched alkyl group of C1-C8, R4 and R5 are each independently hydrogen or a linear or branched alkyl group of C1-C4, and X is a halogen.)

[0015] A sixth aspect of the present invention is: Provided is a method for producing a halogenated branched butyl rubber, including the step of cationically polymerizing isobutylene, isoprene, and the aforementioned halogenated grafting agent in the presence of a diluent, an organic solvent, and a co-initiator to obtain the halogenated branched butyl rubber.

[0017] An eighth aspect of the present invention provides the use of the aforementioned halogenated branched butyl rubber in automobiles and electronic and electrical devices.
Advantages of the Invention
[0018] According to the above technical solution, the beneficial technical effects obtained by the present invention are as follows.
[0019] (1) The halogenated grafting agent according to the present invention has a p-alkylphenyl structural unit and a haloalkyl structural unit bonded on a polymer chain. Its molecular chain has the characteristics of high rigidity, large steric hindrance, strong adsorption force, and many active sites. Thereby, the p-alkylphenyl and halogen atoms can produce a remarkable "synergistic effect" when improving the damping property of the material. When using this halogenated grafting agent to produce a halogenated branched butyl rubber as a halogenated grafting agent, the damping performance of the halogenated branched butyl rubber can be greatly improved, and a high-damping halogenated branched butyl rubber with a high maximum damping rate can be produced.
[0020] (2) In the present invention, the halogenated grafting agent produced by free radical polymerization and anionic polymerization contains a non-polar p-alkylbenzene ring structure. The benzene ring has the characteristics of high rigidity and large steric hindrance. It not only avoids the problem that the molecular weight distribution of butyl rubber broadens due to branching and the mechanical properties and airtightness of butyl rubber decrease, but also improves the tensile strength of butyl rubber.
[0021] (3) The halogenated branched butyl rubber produced by the present invention is produced not by ion substitution, but by addition polymerization using a polymeric damping halogenated grafting agent. The p-alkylphenyl and s-position bromine-halogen structures in the grafting agent are embedded in the main segment of the butyl rubber, blocking the isomerization conditions of the molecular structure, improving the stability of the damping performance of the halogenated branched butyl rubber, and expanding the range of applications for high damping halogenated branched butyl rubber.
[0022] (4) In the manufacturing process of high-damping halogenated branched butyl rubber, the present invention eliminates the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and by-products HBr, reduces harm to the human body and the environment, and omits the process of recovering by-products HBr by alkaline washing. The manufacturing method is environmentally friendly, has a short process time, low production costs, and is suitable for industrial production. [Brief explanation of the drawing]
[0023] [Figure 1] This is the infrared spectral chart of the halogenated grafting agent obtained in Production Example 1. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0024] The endpoints and any values of the ranges disclosed herein are not limited to precise ranges or values, and these ranges or values should be understood to include values close to them. In the case of numerical ranges, the intervals between the endpoint values of individual ranges, the intervals between the endpoint values of individual ranges and individual point values, and the intervals between individual point values can be combined to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, and these numerical ranges should be considered as specifically disclosed herein.
[0025] A first aspect of the present invention provides a halogenation grafting agent comprising structural unit A, an arbitrary structural unit B, structural unit C, and structural unit D, wherein structural unit A has the structure shown by formula (1), structural unit C has the structure shown by formula (2), structural unit B is connected to structural unit A and structural unit C respectively, and structural unit D is a terminal capping structural unit, wherein structural unit B and structural unit D are each independently derived from a conjugated diene. [ka] (In this case, R1 and R2 are each independently hydrogen or a C1-C5 linear or branched alkyl group, R3 is a C1-C8 linear or branched alkyl group, R4 and R5 are each independently hydrogen or a C1-C4 linear or branched alkyl group, and X is a halogen.)
[0026] The halogenated grafting agent of the present invention has p-alkylphenyl structural units and haloalkyl structural units bonded to a polymer chain, and the molecular chain is characterized by high rigidity, high steric hindrance, strong adsorption, and a large number of active sites. Furthermore, because conjugated diene structural units are contained at the ends of the copolymer, this multi-component copolymer has high polymerization activity and can be used as a grafting agent for the production of branched diene rubber, particularly halogenated branched diene rubber.
[0027] The grafting agent of the present invention contains numerous regularly arranged benzene ring structures, fully exhibiting its characteristics of high rigidity and high steric hindrance, and can significantly improve the elastic modulus and barrier properties of halogenated grafting agents. The halogenated branched diene rubber produced using this grafting agent has high damping performance while maintaining excellent mechanical strength and airtightness.
[0028] The stability of the bromine structure in the grafting agent of the present invention not only improves the damping performance of halogenated branched diene rubber, but also solves the problem of butyl rubber, which has few double bonds due to its high saturation and is difficult to vulcanize. This helps to increase the vulcanization rate and improve the vulcanization processability of halogenated branched diene rubber.
[0029] Therefore, the grafting agent of the present invention is characterized by numerous benzene ring structures, a stable halogen structure, and high isotacticity. The halogenated branched diene rubber produced using this grafting agent not only has high damping performance but also excellent airtightness, mechanical strength, and vulcanization processability, meeting the requirements of various applications.

[0044] In some embodiments, the number-average molecular weight of the halogenated grafting agent is 25,000 to 50,000 g / mol, preferably 30,000 to 40,000 g / mol.
[0045] In some embodiments, the molecular weight distribution index (Mw / Mn) of the halogenated grafting agent is any value within the range of 1.5 to 4, for example, 1.6, 1.9, 2, 2.5, 2.8, 3, 3.5, 3.7, and any two of the above values, preferably 2 to 3.5.

The present invention provides a method for producing a halogenated grafting agent, comprising step S2, which involves carrying out a second capping reaction between the polymerization product obtained in step S1 or the third product obtained in step (2) and the first conjugated diene to obtain the halogenated grafting agent. [ka] (Here, R1 and R2 are each independently hydrogen or a linear or branched alkyl group of C1-C5, R3 is a linear or branched alkyl group of C1-C8, R4 and R5 are each independently hydrogen or a linear or branched alkyl group of C1-C4, and X is a halogen.)
[0050] In some embodiments, R1 and R2 are each independently hydrogen or a C1-C3 linear or branched alkyl group, preferably hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, or propyl.

[0053] In some embodiments, X is at least one selected from Cl and Br, preferably Br.
[0054] The present invention provides a method for producing highly damped halogenated branched butyl rubber by first synthesizing an anionically reactive polymer halogenating agent, then synthesizing a polymer damped halogenated grafting agent from p-alkylstyrene and this polymer halogenating agent using alkyllithium as an initiator, and finally performing cationic polymerization of this polymer damped halogenated grafting agent, isobutylene, and isoprene in the presence of a composite catalyst system of alkylaluminum halide and protic acid. In the grafting agent of the present invention, the introduction of benzene rings and halogen atoms and the use of anionic polymerization methods result in a highly regular arrangement of benzene rings and halogen atoms, increasing the steric hindrance effect of the molecular chains and strengthening the polarity of the grafting agent. As a result, the migration resistance of the segments increases, internal friction increases, and the relaxation tension of the segments increases. In this way, damage to the mechanical properties and permeability of the butyl rubber by the damped halogenated grafting agent is avoided during the grafting process of butyl rubber, and the damping performance and tensile strength of the butyl rubber are improved.
[0055] According to the method of the present invention, the maximum damping rate is high, and furthermore, tanδ max This makes it possible to manufacture high-damping halogenated branched butyl rubber with a damping ratio of 1.5 or higher.
[0056] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the monomer represented by formula (I), the second conjugated diene, the monomer represented by formula (II), and the first conjugated diene is 100:0 to 2:15 to 70:3 to 7, for example, 100:0.3:30:4, 100:0.5:40:5, 100:0.6:50:6, 100:0.8:60:7, 100:0.9:70:5, 100:1:65:4, 100:1.2:50:5, 100:1.3:55:6, 100:1.4:45:3, 100:1.5:80:5, 100:1.8:78:5, and any value within the range of any two of the above values, preferably 100:0.3 to 1.5:30 to 68:4 to 6.
[0057] In the present invention, by controlling the mass ratio of the monomer represented by formula (I), the second conjugated diene, the monomer represented by formula (II), and the first conjugated diene within a specific range, a normal reaction for producing polymer grafting agents and grafted butyl rubber can be ensured.
[0058] In this invention, the second conjugated diene and the first conjugated diene are used as end-capping agents. The amount used significantly affects the polymerization reaction. Too much increases the flexibility of the grafting agent segments, impairing the damping performance and mechanical strength of the butyl rubber. Too little results in insufficient end-capping, reducing the reaction-active sites and decreasing the grafting rate, which in turn reduces the damping performance and mechanical strength of the butyl rubber.

[0063] In some embodiments, the first initiator is an organic peroxide, preferably at least one selected from dicumyl peroxide (DCP), cumene hydroperoxide, and benzoyl peroxide (BPO), more preferably benzoyl peroxide (BPO).
[0064] In some embodiments, the second initiator is a hydrocarbyl monolithium compound R-Li, where R is a saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group, an alicyclic hydrocarbon group, an aromatic hydrocarbon group, or a composite group of the above, containing 1 to 20 carbon atoms, preferably at least one selected from n-butyllithium, sec-butyllithium, methylbutyllithium, phenylbutyllithium, naphthyllithium, cyclohexyllithium, and dodecyllithium, more preferably n-butyllithium.

[0067] The structural modifier of the present invention is a polar organic compound that generates a solvation effect in the polymerization system and is used to adjust ionic reactivity. It can adjust the reactivity ratio of p-alkylstyrene and isoprene, allowing both to be randomly copolymerized.

[0069] In the present invention, the amounts used for molecular weight modifiers, structural modifiers, solvents, etc., are not particularly limited and may be added in amounts commonly used in the field.
[0070] In some embodiments, the conditions for the first polymerization reaction include a reaction temperature of 50-60°C and a reaction time of 4-6 hours.
[0071] In some embodiments, the conditions for the first capping reaction include a reaction temperature of 50-60°C and a reaction time of 20-40 min.
[0072] In some embodiments, the conditions for the second polymerization reaction include a reaction temperature of 60-70°C and a reaction time of 70-90 min.
[0073] In some embodiments, the conditions for the third polymerization reaction include a reaction temperature of 80-90°C and a reaction time of 80-100 min.
[0074] In some embodiments, the conditions for the second capping reaction include a reaction temperature of 80-90°C and a reaction time of 30-40 min.
[0075] The method of the present invention further comprises the step of adding an inhibitor to stop the reaction after polymerization is complete, wherein the inhibitor may be one or more selected from methanol, ethanol, and ethanol.
[0076] In this invention, the polymerization reaction is carried out without oxygen and water, preferably in an inert gas environment. Both the polymerization process and the dissolution process are carried out in a hydrocarbon solvent.
[0077] In this invention, vinyl bromide and p-methylstyrene are polymerized directly without adding a capping agent during the process. Since vinyl bromide cannot undergo anionic polymerization, only free radical polymerization, in which an organic peroxide such as BPO is used to initiate the reaction, can be used for this polymerization.

[0088] In some embodiments, the conditions for cationic polymerization include a polymerization temperature of -100°C to -80°C and a cationic polymerization time of 3 to 4 hours.
[0089] A seventh aspect of the present invention provides halogenated branched butyl rubber obtained by the manufacturing method described above. The halogenated branched butyl rubber of the present invention is preferably brominated branched butyl rubber.

S1: Based on 100 parts by mass of vinyl bromide, first, an inert gas is introduced into a 15L stainless steel reaction vessel with a jacket and purged 2 to 4 times. Then, 100 to 200 parts of solvent, 100 parts of vinyl bromide, and 0.2 to 0.5 parts of molecular weight adjuster are added sequentially to the reaction vessel, stirred and mixed, and heated.
